Get Your Data Infrastructure AI-Ready: The 2025 Playbook for Education Leaders
Only a few years ago, the question for most colleges and universities was whether their data was accessible and structured to support basic reporting and analytics needs. That remains a stubborn challenge for most institutions, but now a new question needs to be asked, raising the bar still further on every campus data management system: Is your data AI-ready?
In this insight paper, EAB discusses the persistent shortcomings of current campus data management practices, explores the potential for generative AI to widen access to data and analytics across campus, and shares what you need to do to bridge the gap between the present and an AI-powered future.
Read the paper to learn:
- How the shortcomings of current data management systems and practices lead to widespread frustration across campus, with lack of access to data and the costs institutions incur as a result
- Why colleges and universities that invested in early data warehouses to solve these shortcomings have been frustrated with the results, and why EAB believes the answer lies in adopting a true data management platform
- How institutions with data management platforms have been able to take advantage of generative AI to greatly expand access to data and accelerate results for end-users
- Why incorporating unstructured data (primarily text files) into your data management systems promises to decrease time spent on (often repetitive) administrative tasks for faculty and staff alike
Download the full insight paper to explore the potential of new AI to revolutionize campus data management and discover where you are on the journey to being AI-ready.
